Sears Brings Bosch Laundry to Its Stores

Aug 29, 2008

Sears, Roebuck and Co. and Bosch home appliances announced the addition of Bosch front-loading Nexxt Laundry and Axxis Laundry to Sears' appliance offerings in stores nationwide. ENERGY STAR-qualified Axxis and Nexxt Laundry complete the eco-friendly Bosch line-up at Sears.



Bosch Nexxt Laundry uses the SENSOTRONIC Plus system, where washers digitally analyze load size, temperature and more, and then adjust levels to gently clean everything from wool to silk. The washers' exclusive Archimedic or "Archie" paddles have a special curved shape to create gentler lifting and tumbling for garment movement, water distribution and saturation for all fabric types. Unlike washers that operate on timers, Nexxt washers have thermostats that monitor and automatically adjust the water to precisely the right temperature for thorough cleaning and superior energy efficiency. To gently dry clothes, Nexxt Dryers blow a high volume of air at lower temperatures to prevent damage from over-drying.



All Nexxt Washers exceed the 2008 ENERGY STAR requirements, and meet the 2011 requirements. The exclusive ECOACTION option on select washers further heightens energy efficiency by up to 20 percent. In addition, the dryer's exclusive ECOSENSOR feature uses less energy to dry clothes than conventional dryers, by adjusting the temperature based on the moisture level.



Bosch Nexxt Laundry is available in a variety of color options including silver, white and duo-tone options of silver/white, champagne/white, blue/white and red/white. The MSRP ranges from $799 to $1,299 for washers and $799 to $1,059 for dryers.



Axxis Laundry is a powerhouse in a compact, stackable and efficient package -- perfect for high-rises or homes looking to save much-needed space as well as energy, water and money. In fact, Bosch's new 24-inch Axxis washer offers the largest capacity in its class at 3.4 cubic feet, which can accommodate up to 14 pair of jeans. The versatile Axxis Condensation Dryer does not require any ducting or venting, which allows it to be installed in closets or other interior spaces.



The Axxis Laundry system features a uniquely structured drum with steep edges to ensure that the most heavy-duty jobs are handled efficiently. Paired with the new curved and asymmetric agitator paddles in the washer, clothes are treated gently as the water cascades down like rain. Ensuring the most precise and efficient results, the Logixx control system automatically determines revolutions per minute, number of rinses, soak time and spin speed for every fabric selection, while the new touch controls make the overall operation easy-to-use. The Axxis line ranges from $949 to $1,349 for the washers and $749 to $1,099 for the dryers.?
